Cabrera is an all around solid player who will make the Athletics a lot stronger. With Giambi, Holliday, Ellis, Cabrera, and several young outfielders behind some young promising pitchers, the A's could be in the hunt for a playoff spot. Cabrera hit .281 with 8 HR and 19 SB in 161 games for the White Sox last season, but is a .226 career hitter in Oakland in 137 at-bats.
